Pain
Up again late. Took Hydrocodone, muscle relaxer and antidepressant for leg and back pain. Can't sleep at all. And then... Something I would ask your prayers for. My Son In Law has probably suffered...

He can't draw Unemployment because he is not out of work due no work etc. He has to be able to go to work and make applications to work to draw Unemployment. Already tried saying he could work from home but they want a release from the Dr. If he could go back to work his job is waiting on him.
Unfortunately, I don't think you are getting the 100% true story from your daughter and son in law. Food stamps will not be $15.00, unless that is the per day amount. If he is truly disabled, he will qualify for Social Security disability. Bankruptcy is not the end of the world if they cannot pay their bills. They will most likely not lose their house or their car. If the house and car are now way beyond their financial means, they need to let them go. It will be hard and painful, but it will give them the flexibility to start improving their situation, which may involve moving to an area where she can become employed. You providing money to them may very well be enabling financially bad behaviors. You said they are going from you contributing $2000 a month to $4,000 a month. What if their requests rise to $5,000 or $6,000? If they are truly in as much trouble as you believe and you want to truly help, you need to arrange to either sit down with them and get all the facts or have a trusted financial advisor do it for you. I just think there is a lot of information you are not getting or a lot of information that is being given to you that is not exactly true. Good luck.
